The school building is ancient -- the oldest part dates from 1911! The rest is from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s -- some of the ceilings have asbestos warnings posted on them. A separate science building was built in 2009. In spite of the physical deficiencies, staff and students form a welcoming school community here. My ninth grade Humanities child loves it.

Construction starts in late January with the office and bus circle temporarily relocating to the north side of the building so that construction fencing can go up on the west side. We were told disruptions for students would be kept to a minimum. Fingers crossed.

There are no plans in the current proposal to expand the gym to a full-size one -- we were told construction costs have gone up substantially.

Move in to the new space is scheduled for Fall/Dec 2024.
